Speaking for my Self: Twelve women poets in their seventies and eightiesnew title
Edited by Sondra Zeidenstein
978-1-887344-143-2 $18.00The word “honest” has been overused in reference to poetry, and yet I could find no other word to describe the authentic, fearless, and universal gift of these poems. I particularly love that these poems expose secrets: they let go of facts and emotions possibly hidden for a lifetime. This anthology is a guidebook for how to live authentically. All praise to these women and to editor Zeidenstein—our world is richer for their contributions.Cortney Davis, author of Leopold’s Maneuvers
